Well, that tactical barrier was probably at 12-14 plies because your engine
calculated slightly plies than that. What exactly makes you think there won't be
a tactical barrier at 18-20 plies when your engine calculates 16 plies
typically?

My redesigned engine typically calculates about 8 plies at the moment and the
tactical barrier seems to be at 9-11 plies. :)
